Mitsubishi Electric’s AI solution unleashes the full potential of shop floors 


The innovative data science tool, MELSOFT MaiLab (Mitsubishi Electric AI Laboratory) helps companies drive productivity improvements on manufacturing lines. The new solution offers an intuitive, operator-centric platform that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to automatically optimise operations while maximising equipment monitoring, visibility and diagnostics.  

The future of manufacturing lies in highly efficient and responsive facilities. These are driven by next-level data analytics that provide unique actionable insights into the performance and status of machines as well as processes. While the road to realising these smart factories is clear, companies are often missing the resources to get there. These include the budget for skilled data analysts and AI specialists along with the capability to effectively process large volumes of data as well as time available to develop accurate predictive models.  


MELSOFT MaiLab acts as a dedicated virtual AI data scientist, helping companies to overcome these challenges and empowering them to realise future-oriented manufacturing strategies. Quick to deploy and with minimal training required, the solution bases recommendations and actions on intelligence derived from both live and historic data, without requiring users to have any specialist expertise. In effect, the platform uses machine learning (ML), a subfield of AI, to automate data gathering across a variety of systems, predictive model creation, analysis and the mining of large volumes of data. As a result, the MELSOFT MaiLab software removes barriers to entry for Industry 4.0 applications driven by advanced data analytics, streamlining the implementation of strategies to improve production with a quick return on investment (ROI).

Pilz PSENOpt II
The second generation of light curtains, PSENopt II, provide safe access to the production process and provide finger, hand and body protection, depending on the requirement. The first Type 3 safety light curtains are specifically designed for applications up to PL d of EN/IEC 61496-1. Type 4 light curtains are also available for applications up to PL e in accordance with EN/IEC 61496-1/-2. As the units are so robust, PSENopt II sensors provide protection against shock, collision and vibration and so are suitable for use in rugged industrial environments. The operator can evaluate the essential causes and system defects responsible for the machine stop by means of the LEDs. Downtimes are reduced as a result.

    Stimac - Good technical support for ever-changing specifications
    If the description for an automation project is clear from the start, it is easy for the industrial automation specialist to give it substance. In practice, however, specifications often change during the course of a project. This happened to Stimac/SNK when designing the control technology for a horticultural machine. For the problems that arose during the process, itsme quickly provided Stimac/SNK with a solution. “When a customer calls us, we respond immediately. So it’s nice to have a supplier like itsme who can also help immediately.”
